Accommodation
Incorporating all the flavours and romanticism of Africa, each of the 18 Manor Cottage Suites evoke a sense of period charm and well being. You enter through your own private entrance, spotting the jar of complimentary homemade cookies with a smile. Your plush king size bed is inviting after a soak in the claw-footed tub. The adjoining sun terrace provides a private haven throughout your stay.

Each suite enjoys fantastic views of the landscapes surrounded by fragrant flowering gardens and age old trees. Careful positioning ensures that you experience the natural beauty of the estate, as well as the privacy and intimacy characteristic of an old world manor home.
For families or small groups you might like to stay in Stable Cottage, an enormous three-bedroom private house set over two levels and located a short distance away from the rest of the suites. There is a large lounge and TV room, outdoor patio area and separate dining room if needed, making it a wonderful self-contained option.

The main house includes a beautifully designed and decorated dining room and lounge, a billiard room, a cinema room, wine-cellar with tasting area and a good-sized outdoor pool with massage area.
